I am starting wonder what value DNA results actually are, except to the commercial companies. I attended a zoom lecture on Saturday, where the speaker said exactly what Kite has said.

The trouble is that I am really not interested in close relationships. The lines that interest me are pre-census, which takes them outside the scope of reliable DNA matches. I have one or two where I am related to 4th grandparents via 3 or 4 children's descendants matches, but that is vanishingly rare. (and they are within the scope of censuses)
